It only has to be able to rip music CDs, nothing else.

In my experience shit just works in Linux. I own an 10+ year old external DVD-Drive and an newer external BD-Diskdrive. And both of em work flawless on Manjaro.
Just get a drive from any old notebook of the last 15 years or so someone wants to throw out, and buy a USB to SATA slim cable.
Asus makes a slim 8x external DVD burner that rips CDs very well in Linux, comes with usb-c and usb-a (double connectors.)
I use a Asus ZenDrive V1M
Exact one I have, it works great with Linux
